Jimmy Pardo and Never Not Funny are returning to host the Fifth Annual Pardcast-a-Thon fundraiser to benefit Smile Train. This year's event will stream live from noon to midnight Pacific Standard Time on Friday, November 29th. Jimmy will once again be joined by co-hosts Matt Belknap and Pat Francis.

The 12-hour marathon webcast will stream live at www.pardcast.com and www.laffster.com/nnf from The ACME Comedy Theatre in Hollywood and feature more than twenty all-star comedy guests. Celebrities scheduled to participate include Zach Galifianakis, Patton Oswalt, Andy Richter, Joel Stein, Scott Aukerman, Doug Benson and radio legend Phil Hendrie. Donations will be collected throughout the event via online contributions, and for the first time, special items from the guests will be up for grabs live during the show. Donate and watch live at www.pardcast.com on November 29th, and get a free ticket to the Laffster stream now at www.laffster.com/nnf to receive updates when new items from the all-star guests are added.

Since the inaugural webcast in 2009, the Pardcast-a-Thons have exceeded fundraising goals and emerged as one of comedy's most anticipated charitable events. "I had a blast appearing on the Pardcast-a-Thon," says Conan O'Brien, who participated last year. "Jimmy Pardo is a hilarious comedy partner and I always have fun when we yell at each other for a good cause." Additional celebrity guests have included Amy Poehler, Sarah Silverman, Colin Hay, Aimee Mann, Kevin Nealon, Bob Saget and perennial favorite Jon Hamm. "The Pardcast-a-Thon is the highlight of my Thanksgiving," says Hamm. "The fact that Jimmy doesn't have to do this, and yet year-in and year-out does it all in the name of charity, and has grown it into a national presence, is nothing short of inspiring."

To-date, the Pardcast-a-Thons have raised over $300,000 for Smile Train.

"Smile Train is honored to be a part of Jimmy Pardo and Never Not Funny's Fifth Annual Pardcast-a-Thon. The support Jimmy and his fellow comedians have provided to Smile Train helping children around the world is priceless," said Smile Train CEO Susannah Schaefer. "A smile is such an important part of comedy and we couldn't be happier to work with such a talented and kindhearted group."
